JOHN DEERE CONSTRUCTION & FORESTRY COLD PLANER ATTACHMENTS

John Deere’s new cold planer attachments are powered by Wirtgen cutting technology. Compatible with some current G-series skid-steer models, as well as John Deere’s latest P-Tier skid-steer loaders, four widths, including 18-, 24-, 30-, and 40-inch sizes, will be available to match customers’ milling needs. Utilizing the expertise from decades of milling technology experience by the Wirtgen Group, John Deere says that these cold planers provide intuitive in-cab controls, including tilt float

Caterpillar Cold Planer Attachments For Backhoes And Mini Excavators

Cat cold planer attachments are designed for small residential and commercial paving jobs. They efficiently mill imperfections, remove deteriorated pavement and traffic lane stripes, and allow for better resurfacing.

The new PC35 has a working width of 350 mm (13.8 inches) and 120 mm (5 inch) maximum milling depth, and is intended for operation on side-shift backhoe loaders or 5- to 6-ton mini excavators. A larger version, the PC45, is a 450-mm-wide unit (17.7 inches) with a 150-mm (6-inch) cutting depth that fits backhoe loaders and 7- to 10-ton mini excavators.

activation for seamless pass matching across rolling terrain. Visible indicators for side plate depth, tilt angle, and milling drum cut boundary ensure job site accuracy, while an optional pressure gauge aids in monitoring milling performance. An optional water tank mounts within the cold planer frame for convenient filling, and the nozzle kit effectively suppresses dust. Helping increase precision, the incorporated indicators monitor drum width and cut boundary during operation.

Both planers come standard with a cut depth indicator that gives the operator a quick view of set depth. Milling depth is manually adjusted and locked in. Heavy-duty gear motors provide high torque and efficiency across the speed range, while a hydraulic relief valve limits pressure to the motor for increased longevity. A standard pressure gauge provides feedback to the operator to allow for ground speed adjustments.
